Many of those who practice yoga will be quick to champion its 'magical' benefits - but there has likely never been a yoga experience quite as magical as the one that was offered to yogis at an Austin, Texas, studio on Sunday.

Fans of Harry Potter were in for a treat at the Pints & Poses yoga class at brewery Circle Brewing Co this weekend when the instructors decided to create a wizardry-themed session in honor of the anniversary of Lily and James Potter's death.

Yoga teacher Isabel Beltran and her sister Ximena Larkin saw the anniversary - the day before Halloween - as the perfect opportunity to pay tribute to the fictional world they love.

Bit of a stretch: Harry Potter fans in Austin, Texas, were treated to a class themed around the book and film series on Sunday

A touch of magic: Each of those in attendance was given a wand to use in their poses

'I was reflecting on Harry Potter because Halloween night is the night his parents died and I thought it would be interesting to do something around Harry Potter, Halloween and death (from our culture's perspective),' Ximena told Bustle.

'We're Mexican and celebrate the Day of The Dead. It's not morbid, but rather a celebration of life (of other's as well as our own). I'm the bigger Harry Potter fan between the two of us and the series (especially the last book) is something that changed my perspective on death.'

At the beginning of the class, all those in attendance were given a Potter-worthy wand to get them in the Hogwarts spirit.
